Relaxation of far-from-equilibrium quantum fluids, intimately related to the emergence of long-range order, is theoretically associated with the decay of a turbulent isotropic tangle of vortex lines. We observe and study such decaying…

The decay of quantum vortex rings in counterflow regimes, visualized in Helium II with the help of solid hydrogen particles trapped to their cores, has been a puzzling issue within the usual description of superfluid vortex dynamics,…

Experimental and numerical studies of incompressible turbulence suggest that the mean dissipation rate of kinetic energy remains constant as the Reynolds number tends to infinity (or the non-dimensional viscosity tends to zero). This…

Tangles of quantized vortex line of initial density ${\cal L}(0) \sim 6\times 10^3$\,cm$^{-2}$ and variable amplitude of fluctuations of flow velocity $U(0)$ at the largest length scale were generated in superfluid $^4$He at $T=0.17$\,K,…

We develop a computational model of quantum turbulence decay employing a kinematic prescription for the normal fluid. We find that after an initial transient, the length of the vortex tangle L decreases and for large times obeys a scaling…

We show that normal fluid eddies in turbulent helium II polarize the tangle of quantized vortex lines present in the flow, thus inducing superfluid vorticity patterns similar to the driving normal fluid eddies. We also show that the…
